This building came to be known as the "New Royal Palace" when the Royal Palace at Syntagma Square was badly damaged by fire (1909) and the King moved into the Palace of the Crown Prince while major repairs were made to the Royal Palace. After the assassination of King George in 1913, it became the permanent residence of the Royal Family -- at least, during the periods of monarchic rule in Greece.

Currently, the building is the Presidential Mansion housing the President of Greece.
